Subprojects |  | C and C++ Programming Newbie Society | The aim of the C and C++ Programming Newbie Society is to teach programming to a wide variety of skill levels. Ranging from people who have never written code in their lives, to people who are aces in other languages (Such as Perl, PHP, or Visual Basic). There will be links to tutorials, code snippets to download, compile on their PS2's, and learn from, forums in which to discuss programming techniques, and ask for C/C++ help. I myself am on the journey of discovery with C/C++, and will therefore be posting my progress for others to follow. The Playstation2 Linux platform is a new and exciting opportunity for would-be programmers to arise and share their ideas, this project will attempt to bring their ideas to life with the magic of C/C++ and PS2 Linux. | None |
| | Elite Black Edition | Based on the tutorials provided by Dr H S Fortuna a remake of the 1980's classic 'Elite' for the SONY PlayStation 2 Linux Development Kit. In the initial release only the original game will be available, ie trading/combat, however future addtions include the ability to play 'online', more ships, features (ability to fly around the planet surface for example, co-operation between players, fleet management and control, planetary system control.
Work in progress, currently will render all objects, and basic trading is being worked in at the moment.
The new home for this project is located here. | None |
| | GIF/VIF/DMAtag disassembler | Reads in a GIF/VIF/DMAtag from a file, and prints its contents to the screen, useful in debugging perhaps. Current beta can translate GIFtags and provide warnings for some errors that may be hard to catch (e.g. setting PRIM in REGLIST mode). No VIF/DMA support yet. Compatible with .dat files for VU competitions, and VU dumps from Sauce's modified harness | None |
| | MIPS Assembly Language Tutorial | This is a tutorial in MIPS assembly language programming, intended
for individuals that have not seen assembly language programming before.
There is nothing in this course specific to the PS2, however PS2
developers have found the course useful.
The emphasis on how computers work. The goal of the course is not to turn you into a MIPS programmer, but to give you an understanding of all computer systems.
The only equipment you need for this course is a PC. The only software you need is the SPIM simulator of the MIPS R2000 processor and a text editor. The simulator is available by free download.

| | PlayStation IDE for Windows | PSXIDE codenamed 'KONDEV' has arrived, well at least a snapshot of my development and associated documentation that I have done.
KONDEV is (will be) the ultimate in console development so you can develop for consoles like the PlayStation, PlayStation2 (Native or Linux based), Nintendo64, GameCube, XBox, PC (Windows and Linux) you get EVERYTHING you need including editors, debugger, emulator, compilers, docs, libaries, tools. Oh yeah AND THE SOURCE CODE.
Contained in the zip file is the following :
Windows Binary of the IDE
Windows Dynamic/Static Libraries for the Emulator (YES!)
Windows Dynamic/Static Libraries for the Debugger
Various tools, work in progress
The source code to the LOT of it
The new home for KonDev here.

| | Texture Swizzling | ezSwizzle is a Windows MFC application that allows you to swizzle/unswizzle your textures. It reads a number of formats and has a batch feature to convert all your textures quickly. It generates TIM2 files, but with the source provided it is very easy to change it to generate any format you are using. The documentation also explains the theory behind texture swizzle and has a table with swizzleable sizes and respective speed increases. | None |
| | VUC - VU Compiler | Compiler that translates a C like language to a VCL file that can be assembled to VU machine code. | None |
| | VU emulator | VU emu is an emulator for the PS2 VU1 vectorial unit developed in C++. The aim of the project is to be able to test small micro code routines and, once the code is safe, use it on the PS2.
If you have a PS2 Linux Kit you should forget this program and use Sauce's Visual VU Debugger. Sauces debugger is a powerful tool which perform a lot more functionality than VU emu. But for the rest of the people who does not have a Linux Kit this tool can be usefull. In fact I get involved in this project be cause I was tired of see how all the Linux Kit development tools like VCL are not distributed under open source.
This version is a very early beta of the product and it should contain dozens of bugs, I promise to debug it as soon as I can. I started this project as an 2 hours entertainment and, finally, I need more than three weeks to do this beta. I am a little feed up of this application so I do not test it deeply. Please, report any error found to m3ntol@yahoo.es in order to be fixed.Formula 1 | None |
| | Xaal'Tiqincis V | Xaal'Tiqincis V is basically the fifth regeneration of the old
Xaal'Tiqincis program that the Digital Challenge Group started
writing in 1989. This time without the graphics from Jan-Willem van
Aalst, but with 3D graphics provided by the ps2mud client, a project
elsewhere on this site.
This project will contain example server code for the ps2mud as well
as documentation about the project, as well as form an umbrella for
all related projects. Note that to run the software, you will need the pike programming languages working on your platform. | None |
